Polish League finals, Game 5: May 31, 2007
Donatas Slanina - Prokom Trefl Prokom Trefl aced its fourth straight Polish League title in fine fashion on Thursday by shutting down Turow 68-56 at home in Sopot to win their best-of-seven final series by 4-1. Game 5 was no easier than the previous victories by Prokom, two of which came by 3 points or fewer. This time, the champs nursed small leads into the final quarter, when their dominance on the boards proved too much for Turow to overcome. Donatas Slanina was the big gun on offense for Prokom, pouring in 24 points, including 4 of 9 three-point shots. He was named MVP of the finals. Chrisitian Dalmau was Prokom's other double-digit scorer, with 18 points, but the real story was on defense and the backboards, where the hosts pulled 40 rebounds to just 25 for Turow. Michael Andersen had 8 of those, Jasmin Hukic 7 and Huseyin Besok 6. Dalmau had 5 of Prokom's 14 steals. For Turow, only Thomas Kelati with 17 points and Lance Williams with 10 could do much damage. Prokom led 14-12 after a quarter, 28-25 at the half and 48-42 after 30 minutes, but controlled the scoreboard the rest of the way to the highest lead of the night and a new trophy to raise!
